Fio'ui Tih, once a nutritionist and now an aquaponics engineer and galley worker, joins Greer in answering a question.

The baseline in the Great Adaptation setting is that no species should eat from each other's biotope. Some aliens, like Kroot and Tyranids, are able to not only consume but digest all biotopes, being polyecophages. Tarellians fall in the middle of this sliding scale - the homeplanet's destruction has forced them to expand their feeding envelope or die out. Homeplanet food has been reconstructed from what little the Tarellians had on their ships. Greer is well-fed, with a diet that's tasty, provides adequate nutrition and has no allergen risks.

Happy New Year !!

She belongs to him. Not as a girlfriend who sometimes submits, but as property he owns. Her body is his to use. Her time is his to command. Her will is his to override when he chooses. She surrendered the right to lead herself the moment she accepted his collar, his hand, or his traditional authority over her life. He accepted the responsibility that comes with that surrender because ownership is not a game to him. It is the reality he maintains every day.

In a loving authority relationship, whether it takes the form of Master and slave, Taken In Hand, or a patriarchal structure, he cares for what is his. He sets rules and protocols because she functions best when she has no doubt about her place. He corrects and disciplines because a woman left without clear male authority drifts from her purpose. His care is not soft or permissive. It is the steady, sometimes demanding work of shaping her into the obedient, devoted woman she offered to become. He protects her because she is his, and he refuses to let what belongs to him fall into neglect or chaos.

Consent created the ownership, and it must be maintained for the ownership to remain real. She chose to give herself completely, and she continues to choose it every time she obeys without hesitation and accepts his decisions over her own. A Master, a Head of Household, or a traditional man who understands possession does not ignore this. He watches for the strength of her surrender. He reaffirms the dynamic through ritual and expectation. If her offering ever weakens, he addresses it directly. While she continues to give herself, he holds the full right to lead, correct, and use what is his.

The other night I suddenly got the idea to draw Whalemist with my sona Cacharias because they're both kitties with a whale connection (Whalemist via his name, size, and what he'd eventually become and Cacharias via being a cat shark whale thing)

I have more silly ideas between these two so there might be a part two but Whalemist has currently sapped my drawing motivation (that bastard) and I want to get these out there, so take them
